MCT:August 12, 2008This came on TV really late at night and I thought it was going to be something crap like the kind of dramas you're made to watch in school. However, it's completely not what you expected. Morrell is a really frightening character.
Amazing! -

This is a really good little film, apart from Paddy's accent which i couldnt quite place. The theme of a couple of young boys idolising a stranger who helps them in a fight always seems like one destined for a messy end. It is a messy end, plenty of violence, bullying and general nastiness, but delivered beautifully.

A drama which is really powerful and unique. Paddy Considine plays his part with such realism. As do the boys who are as far from bad actors as you can get and are (or were) far better child actors than Cole and Dylan Sprouse are now. Unmissible, sure-fire entertainment!

Great film that reminds me a lot of what I was up to at that age. Full of laughs and good performances. Well worth seeking out. :)

Ahh life is good -until the freaks arrive. Another "like real" UK winner. It's tough growing up around here and I know because this flick has told me so. Nice work.

again, great natural acting from young kids bringing this above your typical up north kids picture, and in paddy consadine, a evil, dangerousguy, you just dont know what to expect, as he befriends the 2 kids, becoming there friend while in trouble, but his short dangerous fuse, coming full force, you laugh at his childish ways, then with a sudden turn, after pitying him, he becomes a dangorous bully, well acted all round, and again meadows showing hes one of britains very best directors

MCT:January 21, 2008Absolutely fantastic. First movie i'd paid for in ages, based on how amazing This Is England is, and i'm very much happy that some bit of money will reach Meadows and empower him to make more of some of the best British drama out there. Top notch stuff. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll look up his filmography.

MCT:November 24, 2007A very realistically scripted drama, which ultimately sets its focus on a friendship between two boys that is thrown about when a psychotic Paddy Considine becomes a part of their lives. Although the actors meet a high standard, and the plot comes to end with some success, there is something unexplainably ungripping about the story's development, which (for me) renders it unrewatchable...

Good british Drama.You dont know whether to laugh or cry most of the time so its not always easy viewing but its a good,well acted story about friendship.

MCT:October 18, 2007Sounds like a weaker version of The Good Son. If you're more annoying that MacAulay Culkin then you've got problems.

Another excellent film from Shane Meadows and another outstanding performance for Paddy Considine. This film manages to lure you into a false sense of security and then shocks you. Again, gritty, realistic something that seems to be a pattern for Shane Meadows.

Astounding comedy drama from the highly talented Shane Meadows. Paddy Considine underlines the works 'terrific actor' with his performance as the eccentric stranger that befriends two young friends after breaking up a fight. Powerful is a word that comes to mind in terms of the writing, direction and acting. Fantastic!

One amazing film. Considine delivers one hell of a performance as the odd and dangerous Morrell. Meadows is such a good director his use of tension is astounding...

Shane Meadows can do no wrong, spot him as the fish and chip man, superb acting from all involved, some bits are quite violent though.

Fantastic acting by the kids in this. Quite a simple story on the face of it, but full of complex relationships. Paddy Considine is brilliant as Morrell who develops from creepy to deeply menacing to full on psycho. But, don't worry he gets his just desserts in the end from Romeo's wayward father - and it's great.

A good movie which appears to start off as a pretty simplistic tale of friendship until it turns more sinister.
Paddy Considine gives a great performance as the eccentric but unhinged loner. -
MCT:June 9, 2007this move was ok, it is one of those movies that are on at like 1am in the morning and there is nothing else on
i have to admit that i didnt know whether to laugh at the character morrell or be sympathetic for him because he had a hard life
but i have to admit he did deserve what he got in the end in treating the other people the way he did, but it was obvious that he was going to get beat up by romeos dad
i wouldnt say that this movie was one i am about to run to the shops and buy, but andrew shim and frank harper do suit roles like the ones they played in this movie
bob hoskins was the best actor in this movie by far -
MCT:May 6, 2007
I was actually frightened for the kids in this movie. Morrell is really a scary person, much scarier than any horror movie, because he is so realistic. I see this guy all the time everywhere I go..
